Early the next morning, Yi Fan and the others got up early to finish breakfast, packed up their things and prepared to go. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info As soon as Yi Fan walked out of the door of the post station, he saw Dongfang Jin standing outside the door.
"Dongfang Gongzi, good morning, why did you come out so early?" Yi Fan walked over and asked.
"Didn't I make an appointment to go to the county seat together last night, I'm not afraid that you will leave me behind, so I'm waiting here early in the morning for you to come out, hehe. ā
"Dongfang Gongzi really likes to laugh. ā
"Who is this?" Uncle Li walked over and asked.
Yi Fan introduced on the side, "This is Dongfang Jin's son, we only met last night." Then he introduced to Dongfang Jin, "Dongfang Gongzi, this is Uncle Li, this is Yang Yun Gongzi, you saw this Li girl last night, I won't introduce it again." ā
"Hello everyone, in Xia Dongfang Jin, it is an honor to meet you. ā
"Wait, Yi Fan, you just said that you met last night, and Miss Li also knows this person, how could you and Miss Li be together last night?" Yang Yun suddenly asked.
"I couldn't sleep after dinner last night, and then I went out to sit for a while, Miss Li also came out to breathe because she couldn't sleep, we met, chatted for a while, and then Dongfang Gongzi also came out, so we got to know each other. ā
"It's true, it's really just like this, and then what?" Yang Yun hurriedly asked.
Yi Fan glanced at him, "That's not the case, then what else do you want?" Later, of course, they went back to their rooms to rest." ā
Yang Yun snorted and turned his head to look at Li Qingyan.
Dongfang Jin on the side said loudly at this time, "It seems that the road to the county seat will definitely be very lively." ā
"Let's go, everybody. Uncle Li got into the carriage as he spoke, Yi Fan and the others also sat down, and Dongfang Jin rode a horse by himself.
As soon as he started, Yi Fan's head stretched out from the window of the carriage, looked at Dongfang Jin outside and asked, "Dongfang Gongzi, did you only carry a burden for the imperial examination, I see that everyone else is carrying a bamboo basket with many books in it, and then a big bag, why do you just carry a small burden." ā
"There must be something different in this world to be more exciting, isn't it?" Dongfang Jin didn't answer Yi Fan directly, but said so.
"It seems that Dongfang Gongzi is one of the wonderful ones. Li Qingyan's voice came out of the carriage.
"Miss Li is really surprised by what she said, I'm not as outstanding as you think. ā
"Hey, that's right. Dongfang Jin suddenly exclaimed, looked at Yi Fan in the carriage and asked, "Yi Gongzi, if you say a rude word, can your eyes see it?" I saw you with your eyes closed all the time, and I thought you were blind. ā
"My eyes have always been visible, and even though my eyes are closed, I can see everything around me clearly. ā
"It's so amazing, it's really the biggest in the world, it's all wonderful, but I have seen too little. Dongfang Jin sighed.
At this time, when Yang Yun in the carriage heard Yi Fan say that he could see with his eyes, he also asked in surprise, "What, you said you can see, not blind?"
Yi Fan didn't have a good impression of this Yang Yun, his previous attitude towards himself, and the question he asked himself like a prisoner just now, and now he is talking like this. At this time, Yi Fan didn't bother to care so much, thinking that if he was offended, he would be offended, so he opened his mouth and said, "You are blind, when did you hear me say that I was blind? Uh, no, you are deaf, which eye looks at me like a blind man? Hey, no, how can I say it? But I think you should be able to figure it out if you are smart, right, Yang Gongzi?"
Yang Yun was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while when he saw Yi Fan talking to him like this, but Dongfang Jin outside had already laughed.
"Yi Gongzi is really an interesting person, it seems that if you can get acquainted with Yi Gongzi, you can have a lot of fun in life, hahaha. ā
"Where, where, Dongfang Gongzi smiled. Yi Fan said.
Yang Yun in the carriage saw the two laughing at him in front of him, and he trembled with anger. "Yi Fan, you wait, wait until you get to the county seat, I will let you know that I Yang Yun is not something anyone can mess with, hum. ā
Yi Fan glanced at him and said two words lightly, "Hehe."
These two simple words made Yang Yun almost so angry that he didn't swallow it and suffocated to death. Yang Yun didn't speak again, just glanced at Yi Fan viciously, and then turned his head to the side, he was afraid that when he saw Yi Fan's face now, he couldn't help but want to hit him.
After the two of them made such a fuss, the group seemed to talk a lot less, and only Yi Fan and Dongfang Jin chatted without a word along the way.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
"Finally to the county seat. Yi Fan looked at the bustling crowd on the street, the blue brick houses on both sides of the street, and listened to the cries on the street, looking a little excited, looking around along the way, asking Li Qingyan what the names of those things he had never seen on the street and what they did. Li Qingyan on the side saw that Yi Fan was now like a child, full of curiosity about everything, and introduced him to him one by one with a smile.
"Dirt buns. ā
Yang Yun saw that Yi Fan and Li Qingyan were talking and laughing all the way, but he was ignored by everyone along the way, which made his resentment towards Yi Fan deeper.
After about an hour, several people stopped outside an inn.
"Alright, here's it, let's all come down. Uncle Li shouted outside.
Yi Fan stepped out of the carriage, looked up, and saw a plaque that read Fulai Inn. Because it's almost noon now, there are a lot of people inside, and it seems very lively, and the little two who run the hall are tired and sweating profusely.
"Uncle Li, are we going to have lunch here?" Yi Fan turned his head and asked Uncle Li.
"Yes, just eat here, still live here, hehehe. ā
"This ...... Didn't you say that your son was in the county seat, why didn't you go there directly, and stay at the guest house outside...... Ah, could it be that this inn was opened by your son?" Yi Fan said in surprise.
"Hehe, yes, this inn is opened by my son, let's all go in. Uncle Li said that he walked in first, but Yang Yun didn't go in, and stood outside and said to Uncle Li and Li Qingyan, "Grandpa Li, Miss Li, I won't go in, I'll go home first to meet my parents, after all, I have been away from home for so long, and the second elder has been worried for so long." ā
"Stay for lunch and then leave, it's noon now, you don't have to rush this time." Uncle Li persuaded.
"No, I can go back now to catch up with lunch at home and say goodbye. After Yang Yun finished speaking, he glanced at Yi Fan coldly, and then left without looking back.
"Hey, this kid. ā
Uncle Li looked at Yang Yun who was walking away, sighed, and then invited Yi Fan and Dongfang Jin into the inn.
"Alas, the old man is back. ā
As soon as a few people walked into the inn, a middle-aged woman came over and called. And when Li Qingyan saw the middle-aged woman coming over, she smiled and called her mother. The person who came was Li Qingyan's mother Lin Xiu.
"Xiu'er, don't worry about us, it's so busy now, you go and greet the guests first, let's put the things away first, and then find a place to sit, you go and get busy." Uncle Li said to Mother Lin.
"Okay, sit down for a while, and I'll go to the kitchen and have someone cook a few dishes for you. Mother Lin said and walked to the kitchen, Li Qingyan and Yi Fan greeted each other and followed to the kitchen.
"Two of you, let's go upstairs and sit down for a while, and then have lunch when the food is fried in a while, and go." Uncle Li said and took Yi Fan and Dongfang Jin to the second floor, and then found a room and walked in.
"Wow, I really didn't expect Uncle Li's family to still open an inn, and it's such a big inn. Yi Fan said in surprise.
"Hehe, at the beginning, we only opened a small noodle restaurant in the county, and then it slowly developed, and now it has been more than ten years, and time flies so fast. ā
"I see that your inn business is so prosperous, and it will definitely be even bigger in the future. ā
"Now it's just because it's about to take the imperial examination, and it's worse at other times. ā
"By the way, speaking of the imperial examination, don't you want to participate in the Dongfang Gongzi, when do you go to sign up, I will also follow the long experience at that time. Yi Fan turned his head to look at Dongfang Jin and asked.
"Could it be that Gongzi Yi also plans to participate in the imperial examination, that is really good. ā
"Eh, don't get me wrong, I just went out with you, I didn't say I wanted to refer to it. ā
"That's a pity. I'm going to sign up in the afternoon, and then I'll go out together and walk around, and it's my first time here. Dongfang Jin said.
"What, you're here for the first time, so don't take me out and get lost and can't find it back. ā
Uncle Li and Dongfang Jin both laughed when they heard Yi Fan say this, and Uncle Li continued, "I'll let Qingyan accompany you around in the afternoon, she is familiar here, so as not to get lost between the two of you, haha." ā
At this time, Li Qingyan opened the door and walked in, "What are you talking about, smiling so happily?"
"Qingyan, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, you will accompany Yi Gongzi and them out for a walk. Uncle Li smiled and said what they had just talked about, and Li Qingyan agreed with a smile when he heard it.
